a field of 3.9 miles is being subdivided into 1.3×3 family gardens how many square miles will each of the garden. Write your answers significant not

Answer 1

To find the area of each family garden, we first calculate the area of one garden by multiplying its dimensions.

Each family garden has dimensions of $1.3$ miles by $3$ miles:

$$\text{Area of one garden}=1.3,\text{miles}\times 3,\text{miles}=3.9,\text{square miles}$$

Each garden has an area of $3.9$ square miles.

Next, to understand how many gardens can fit in the overall field of $3.9$ square miles, we would divide the total area by the area of one garden:

$$\text{Number of gardens}=\frac{\text{Total area}}{\text{Area of one garden}}=\frac{3.9,\text{square miles}}{3.9,\text{square miles}}=1$$

Thus, you can fit 1 garden of $3.9$ square miles in a $3.9$ square mile field.
